(Dennis Manoloff/PD)

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Geneva High School product Brian Anderson has become an MLB lifer.

As a Wright State left-handed pitcher in 1993, Anderson was the third overall pick in the 1993 MLB Draft by the California Angels. He played for four franchises in a 13-year career, including the Indians (1996-97; 2003). He won a World Series ring with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2001 and came oh-so-close with the Indians in 1997.

After his playing career ended, Anderson began putting his vast baseball knowledge and command of the English language to use in the TV booth.
